Our Life: Binder Printables - The Updated Version

Hi ya'll! Here are the new downloadable versions of my printables. Hopefully we have no further issues with downloading! I'm crossing my fingers and saying a little prayer that these work for ya'll.

You simply need to click the "File" button and it will allow you to download the file and from there you can print.

I'm so sorry it has taken so long to get these uploaded. I know so many of you have been asking when they would be available. Life just gets so busy sometimes and my laptop with the original files has been down for awhile. But here they finally are!

On one another note, I do want to say that I'm so very happy that I can be of help with your organizing needs. But, please remember that these are my original designs and copying them or modifying them is not allowed. You are more than welcome to print as often as you'd like but please respect my time and effort and do not copy my work. That sort of thing just makes me not want to share any of my documents/downloads and I don't want to do that. Please respect my work. Thank you!

So here we are! Happy Downloading Friends! May you have an excellent day!!

I love your ideas on the binder, but they don't really work for my needs. Would you mind sharing what program you use to make the documents? I'm not going to copy you, because like I said, I have a completely different set of needs & priorities to address. I am a single college student. :) Anyways, I would REALLY appreciate it! :)

Thank you sooo much! You are a God send! I love everything about your binder & am grateful to find the downloads. Quick question-what font did you use for the "Blessing Others" on the gift giving form? I'm VERY visual so all the details impact me greatly. That's why I love your printouts.

These are awesome! I am going to be working on my binder. I would like to show it on my blog. Do you mind if I mention your blog and link it to your page so everyone can see your binder and pages?Shannahttp://moneymannersandmakeup.blogspot.com

I originally read your post on your binder and then was terribly wishing I could get what you created for my own use....how excited I was to see that you have them available. Thank you so much. I have been wanting to start a home planning binder, but didn't know where to start and wanted something cute that I would enjoy using. This is a huge blessing. Once again, thank you.

Hi Mandi,I doscovered your blog when I was looking for homemaking binder ideas. Thank you so much for your generous download option. I know you put in a lot of work into it. I've been using a binder for years, but never thought other housekeepers used such organized versions. I'm really excited and feel a little less weird:)Thank you once again.

Wish I had done this sooner. My gall bladder acted up, I was taken to hospital for a week in an ambulance from the doctor's office. My husband's caregiver and my son were calling me constantly for info. At least now they know I don't sit around doing nothing anymore.

Oh I also was wondering what program you used and if you would be willing to share PDFs that can be edited, that way I can format things like the shopping list fit me an my hubby to be. I LOVE your layouts and the look you have created!!! I would 100% give you credit if you allowed us to have PDFs that can be edited. Thanks so much!

This is so amazing Mandi! You really have done a great job with this! Thanks so much for sharing, this will save me a lot of time trying to do this myself. Cant wait to share this with my mom! She's crazy for organization ;)

Thanks for the sweet comments, y'all! I know a couple have mentioned that they are having issues with downloading and receiving error messages. I've tried to email you but there was no email attached to your blogger profile. Things are all clear on my end so if you let me know the error message, I'll try to help. I know that if you are using a MAC, Google Docs have had a known issue with downloading onto MACS.

And, a particular troll stopped by to let me know that my pages are a ripped off version of Fly Lady. Well, I say, what a compliment! I've never gone through the Fly Lady program but if we are printouts are similar, I suppose great minds think alike!

1. Thank you thank you thank you for your cute designs - much cuter than the Fly Lady website!2. You aren't even profiting so what do those trolls care anyway? ;) 3. I found you on Pinterest or a blog linking to you that I found on Pinterest, don't remember now but I'm glad I did!Thanks for everything!4. I'm incredibly OCD and noticed the Grocery List heading is misspelled, I was wondering if you could fix it? Is that terribly bratty? Sorry! Your list is the best I've found and I want everything to match, but I'm a grammar & spelling nut! 5. Also - what font do you use? My binder came with printable tabs for the dividers and I'd love for them to match my pages!

Who cares if you printouts are a "ripped off version of fly lady:!!! I mean really!! I do follow fly lady...and although I love fly lady...I like your version better!! It's prettier!!! Thank you so much for making them available for FREE! Do you by any chance happen to have current calendar pages???

Thank you for the cool printables! I love your monthly 2 page calendar. But are you planning on updating the actual calendar to be current? The little calendar at the top of the second page is current, but the actual dates on the block calendar are not. Thanks again!

Thank you for the cool printables! You have motivated me to make my own home management binder. I love the 2 page monthly calendar. Are you planning on updating the actual calendar? The little calendar at the top is 2012, but the actual dates on the block portion of the calendar are not.Thanks again!

Daphne - Girl, thank you! You were the first person to tell me that!! As soon as I'm able to, I'll fix it. My computer is broken and I actually just need a brand new one so until I get one, I am without the program to fix it. That will be the first thing I do. :)

The scripted font is actually "Susie's Hand". But "Digs My Heart" is another favorite of mine and I've used it in other documents.

Cody - I didn't include the home projects page because it was a page I made almost five years ago and I no longer have a copy. Once I get my computer up and running I will recreate something like it.

Rekha - The calendar is from 2011. This is a pretty old post. :) The printable calendar pages for 2012 are here: http://mandicresswell.blogspot.ca/2012/01/its-start-of-new-year-and-with-my-goals.html

I do plan on making an updated version for 2013. Keep posted for that! And new pages WILL be coming. And yes, some will be editable!! Just waiting for my computer. :) Hopefully very soon!!

I have been searching for the perfect binder for our family! Everything I found was not good enough. I LOVE your things and printed a whole bunch of pages... might need to refill the ink! Again, amazing and I am really excited to use them!

Mandi,Thank you so much for taking the time to make and post (for free!) the binder AND the monthly calendar. I used the monthly calendar last year and now found your life binder! I'm so excited. Thanks for your creativity and your time!Denise B

You have NO idea how much of a life saver this is for me!! I was going to do my own templates but my brain has been so mushy I can't think straight and coming across your blog is a God Sent!! Thank you soooooo much!!!!!

You have officially changed my life, and saved me from COUNTLESS "Where the heck did that go?!" headaches!!! This is amazing and I will be working on this project today after a quick trip to the store!! THANK YOU!!!!! <3

This is a fantastic binder! thanks so much for going to the effort & for posting it! looking forward to seeing more of your items! from Chris (a momma who made it through the little ones and now has grandsons! whewww!)

Hi Mandy, I just stumbled across your website through Pinterest and absolutely love the home binder! I took mine and laminated the pages so I could use permanent or wet erase marker. :0) I was looking for a PDF of the calendar that I could write in the days, 2014 or an editable version. Is there one available? Thanks for everything Mandi!

Welcome to my neck of the bloggin' woods! My name is Mandi and I'm so glad you decided to come by today. I'm just a gal from Pennsylvania who married my Canadian husband seven years ago.
